New Meiji snacks

Went to Suntec Carrefour with Teddy on Saturday. Managed to find new meiji snacks. Always like to see what meiji has to offer from Japan as I find their packaging very cute and attractive and the snacks are quite interesting.

Bought the "Lucky Stick" that is cappuccino flavoured cream. The smell is very nice and the stick tastes good. Found another snack that you need to make on your own. It's called Taiyaki gummy. Have to add water then the ingredients in the packet. Will take a photo of the instructions tomorrow. =)

“夜来香”清汤

Had a relatively busy weekend, Sat morning went for 18 degrees meeting. Changed group from Creative group to Writing group. Went to visit Teddy as he is still in a little pain after the wisdom teeth extraction. He sent me to Plaza Singapura for piano then headed for his JC friend's wedding solemnization. After my piano lesson, met him and his friends at Marina Mandarin. We went to Suntec's Souperlicious for dinner as he is still on soft diet. It was a pity he couldn't join the wedding dinner. Went to fetch his parents after dinner as they got back from Malaysia.

Sunday, went for dim sum at Tak Po at Smith Street with parents, grandma and Teddy. His ankle was aching and had to apply the ointment I got him last time. We went to a warehouse sale with dorothy perkins, topshop and other apparels but most of the sizes don't fit. Quite disappointing. Went to buy “夜来香”清汤 near his place to comfort myself for missing the retail therapy. Tried the Tom Yum soup at Jalan Kayu...too spicy...next time cannot order.

Long dream

Last night, I dreamt that I went to Malaysia with my parents, sis and Teddy. Somehow, I was attending a seminar and after that, I left Teddy at a bookstore. My 5th Aunt went to fetch Teddy back. In reality, my 5th aunt can't drive.
After that, we went to an indoor theme park. The place was quite big and I couldn't locate Teddy. Then my parents called me on my handphone as they were separated from me as well. I remembered seeing my colleagues at the theme park too. I couldn't find my parents even after they gave me directions, in the end, had to get a staff to hear where they were and then I was woken up by the alarm. So weird...

The hunt of the sugarbunnies

Was skyping with sis and mentioned to her that Mcdonalds is having sugarbunnies for Happy meal toy...she said that she wants the white and brown bunny so have to look for her. At the outlet near my workplace, they only have the brown and pink bunny. I managed to collect the whole set for myself but was still lacking in the white bunny for sis.

Teddy came to pick me up after work as he went to the dentist before that. His wisdom teeth were causing discomfort, so he had to go for a dental visit. He will be operated on tomorrow. Hope he won't fall sick after that. Got a few friends who went for wisdom teeth removal last time and they had fever after the operation.

We went to Marina Square and managed to get tickets for "Love Cuts". Thought that the timing was quite unfair for the movie, for most cinemas, the timing was around 6+pm or 7pm. Most people working won't be able to catch that. We had dinner at Just Asia as after buying the movie tickets, we were given a 1 for 1 coupon at the restaurant. Checked Marina Square's Mcdonalds for the white sugarbunny, but it's sold out already. After the movie, we went to West Coast Park Mcdonalds, Lot 1 and Siglap Centre to look for the white sugarbunny. It was only after much searching, we found it at Siglap Centre. Finally, don't have to eat another Happy meal to get the toy.

A friend acted as a GP in "Love Cuts", quite surprise to see him acting in the movie. Thought that the movie wasn't as draggy as described in a movie review. Teared up at certain points of the movie. The voice-over for the supporting actress sounded a little weird. Think they did it in Taiwan. Quite a meaningful movie.

Kbox session

Met up with Jason's friends in Ang Mo Kio Central to go to Kbox for singing session. We went around 1pm and sang till 630pm. Been quite awhile since I last went to ktv so had a good time singing with them. Teddy sang a Chinese song that I've never heard before, 《求佛》, quite interesting...haha.
We went to Far East to eat Indonesian food and went window-shopping. After sending them home, Teddy sent me back. He was quite tired from all the driving around...

Catch up with JC gals

Met up with Jo and Chat at Clarke Quay Central with Jason for lunch at Sun with Moon. Got a pleasant surprise when I saw Jo pregnant...didn't know she was till I saw her. Chat is also pregnant but her baby is due next year. Coincidentally, Chat's hubby is called Jason too. =)

病了。。。

可能是因为今天为了送机 （妹妹到武汉5个月），很早就起身，不够睡，到了大约两点多，开始头疼。过后，就很不舒服。回家不久，就吐了。很少会吐，所以很不喜欢这种感觉。吃了一颗头痛药，然后小睡了一下。吃饱晚饭后，又去休息。J 下班后，不放心，就过来看我怎样了。大约九点，又吐了。J 决定带我去看医生。因为已经晚了，所以只有24小时的诊所有开。他送我回家，看我吃了药才离开。

Sweet post by Teddy...

"As she slept peacefully beside me, i gaze upon her beautiful face. She looked so contented and happy. That image of peace, tranquility, beauty and bliss. It will forever be burned in my mind. I love her."

I didn't know he was watching me when I was napping beside him on Sunday...

点心

As my parents and sis went to Bali for holiday, Jason decided to treat grandma and myself to Dim Sum at Paramount on Sunday afternoon. Think she enjoyed the lunch. It was nice of him to give her a treat. =)

New Look

Last week, went out shopping with Yifen at Orchard, bought a shirt dress from ION Neu Look. Yifen got 2 coupons minus $5 with every $10 purchase of a regular item and she gave me 1. Decided to check out Somerset 313 outlet to see if they have new stocks. Didn't see anything that I wanted to buy so went to meet Jason at ION. We went to food opera for our dinner. The place is quite crowded and the food are normally pricier. Went to the ION Neu Look after going to the newly opened Daiso. Managed to get Oolong Tea from Daiso, didn't see it in the stores for quite some time.

At Neu Look, found this pair of wedges that look quite good. But for size 4, it's the last pair and there's a slight mark at the front of the shoes. Got the sales staff to help check stock at Somerset outlet and they have it. Didn't see this pair when I was walking around there. Hence, we took a train down to 313 to get the shoes. As every $25 spent, entitles 1 coupon, after scratching the card, I got the same discount again...haiz...looks like I got to make another trip down to the store soon to use the coupon.

安全感

当一个人开始胡思乱想时，她最缺乏的就是安全感。读了他以前写的blogposts，发现他以前爱得很深，也被伤得很深。当然一切已经成为过去，但是不知道他心里的“缺口”是否已经被我填满。

在Facebook上，有感而发：“他曾经那么爱她，但是无法把她留下。所以我的出现是否能代替什么？” 他读了之后，赶紧打电话给我，但是我还在上课，所以没有接。他回应：“Dear, why are you saying this? O.O You are not a replacement for anyone. *hugs* You are beautiful in your own way and i love you for that. I will never use you as a replacement.”

读了之后，情绪稍微被安抚了。缺乏安全感真是很烦人。当然，谁都不想当代替品，但是当你发现你已经爱上一个人，你愿意做代替品，即使知道自己不会是他的唯一，或者不能完全代替那个人。

可能是自己想太多，太感情用事。其实也不能对他要求什么，毕竟我们都还没签字，彼此的身份仍是男女朋友罢了。

但是我还是♥他　＾＿＾

见外婆

外婆透过妈妈说想见见Teddy Chua,　所以安排他星期天下午去拜访外婆。他买了清汤甜品载我和妈妈去外婆家。大姨、四姨、五姨和小舅都在。坐了一会儿，他说弟弟要用车，所以我们俩先走了。回到他家，他的妈妈又买了榴槤请我吃。好幸福！＝P

"Aftershock" 《唐山大地震》

Wanted to watch this movie for some time as the reviews were quite good, plus it's by 冯小刚, who is a famous director. Yifen caught it with her colleagues and told me it's a tear-jerker...so got tissue paper prepared before we went into the Vivocity cinema.

The show was very moving. Can't believe the number of people who died due to the earthquake...the numbers are just so huge...my favourite scene of the movie was when the girl was adopted and she spoke for the first time when the foster parents registered her at the new school and she corrected the person about her name. =)

6 months already...

Time flies and we are together for 6 months already...been through quite abit, with our Japan trip, my grandfather's funeral, our first National Day together...

Thankful that he entered my life, sharing my ups and downs together. Grateful that he always show support when I needed it.

Got him a black Zojirushi stainless steel thermos mug from Tangs...I have a red coloured version too, but mum is using it cos I didn't bring to school. Hope he'll find it useful.

He got me 2 Cecilia Ahern books which I have already...haha...but the handmade card was very nice. =)

We went to have Indonesian food at Lucky Plaza before heading to tcc at Centrepoint. He felt quite tired, so we headed home around 10pm.

The day my sports shoes gave way...

Went back to school for the Youth Olympic Games Cheer the Flame...P4, P5 students were back with the staff to line the road opposite our school to cheer our P6 boy who was the torch bearer and running along the roads...

The weather started getting gloomy when we were gathering in school and soon, rain came down...it was pouring when the YOG buses came by and the boy bearing the torch had to run in the rain. Poor thing...we were cheering him on in our white ponchos as he ran past us.

Headed to Punggol to meet Yifen and accompanied her to get her facial treatment consultation at Orchard. We went to Sushi Tei at Paragon for lunch and started shopping for her shoes. That's when I realised that my sports shoes started giving way. The soles were starting to peel off, so I had to start dragging my feet around to prevent the whole thing from coming off.

We went to a few shoe stores but couldn't find anything suitable. We went to neu look and I found a white long sleeve blouse (can fold up, with buttons) with a belt, looked quite nice so tried it on and it fitted quite well so decided to buy that. Yifen also got a black dress and 2 camisoles. When paying, realised that the price for my white blouse was further reduced by $10 so it only costs $19.90 instead of $59.90 (usual price).

In the end, we went to the cotton on outlet at Orchard mrt to find my sandals, bought a silver pair for $5 and threw away my spoiled sports shoes. We went to tcc at Wisma next and I tried the peachy sunrise drink. Thought it's quite sour, think will stick to fruity delight if I don't want coffee-based drink next time.

Will be catching the korean drama, Nanta with Yifen, Ray, Jason and Yifen's parents on 3 Oct...should be a good show. =)

"Salt"

Didn't think we'll catch this movie but since Jason's bro had free movie tickets so we went to Tiong Bahru for the free screening. The movie has quite a number of twists, there'll definitely be part 2.

While on our way back to his house after the movie, was on the expressway when I caught some fireworks as we went pass Marina area...quite stunning. Jason was driving so he didn't catch it.

We went to Expo for the Borders book sale before going for the movie. Bought 3 books at the fair, one of Amy Tan's, one of Marian Keyes and one of Jimmy Liao's...didn't know he had it in English.

Jason's foot is still depending on the “正骨水”。 Apply for him whenever needed. At least the swelling is gone...bai ka teddy...

祸从口出

有些人，有些事就是不应该多嘴，最后倒大霉的人还是自己。真的觉得我的八字和某个人相冲，很容易就惹毛某人，然后被骂。有时候真的觉得自己说话没有经过大脑，害了自己。可能要去庙里拜拜，不要再遇到小人了。（－＿－"）

"Inception"

Caught this movie last night with Jason at Marina Square. It's quite a complex movie but I find it rather interesting. I like the scene where the buildings and roads were inverted...wonder how they did the computer graphics, quite impressive...Stars Leonardo Dicaprio and Ken Watanabe.

Mandai Crematorium

Grandpa's funeral was held today. The monks came to say prayers last night. After another prayer, we sent him off. The cremation was done at Mandai Crematorium. It's my first time there. The air-con was very strong, making the room where we waited briefly quite cold. Was told not to cry but when the coffin was rolled in for cremation, couldn't control the tears...
By 3pm, we went back to the crematorium for the ash collection. Saw how the ashes were laid in the urn. As his family members, we were also told to place a piece of his bone into the urn and also a piece of the skull. The crushing of the bones to fit the ashes into the urn was a sickening sound.
No matter where my grandpa is now, I hope he is at peace.

Grandpa 1924-2010

Parents woke me & sis around 1+am saying that the hospital called, grandpa has fainted...we thought he'll be fine so we decided to stay at home.
The next morning, Mum woke us up, saying that Grandpa has passed away last night...it was a rude shock. I just visited him last night with Jason, he seemed alright and now he is gone.
Dad drove me to school where I applied for compassionate leave. We went to the town council to apply for the multi-purpose hall to hold the wake.
By 3+pm, the body came and as my Grandpa is a Buddhist, there were monks to pray.
This is so unreal.

Fireworks and sunrise

After meeting his 2 JC classmates for lunch at tcc, went for my piano lesson at PS. We headed for Sentosa Resorts World to catch the fireworks at Universal Studios. Had dinner at KT's Grill and since I wasn't that hungry, we shared a combo meal. The food was quite good. There were alot of people waiting for the fireworks. We went to the stores to look at the merchandise. Teddy got a laptop bag while I had a mechanical pencil that costs $9.90...super ex!

The fireworks was very nice, tried to take photos but thought a video would be better as there were music too. So only took 1 photo at the beginning and took a video after.

We decided to catch the sunrise at Changi Beach but due to cloudy conditions, couldn't really see the sunrise...what a pity...

Night Museum - Night Festival 2010

After the PSLE Oral briefing at Spring Singapore, took NEL to Dhoby Ghaut to meet Teddy to go to the Night Festival. We went to the SMU open area to find the graffiti van to get the free t-shirts. We walked over to Peranakan Museum next. There were glow in the dark art activities so we tried the sand art and also the peranakan tiles...I did a peacock sand art and 1 of the tiles. We went over to Kopitiam for a late dinner before heading to the National Museum to look at the exhibits in the various galleries.

Agnes - Despicable me (Does this count as annoying, I'm gonna die, It's ...

Caught the movie "Despicable Me" and I adore Agnes! She is so cute!!!

Not fated to watch...

Tried to catch "Toy Story 3" last night at Cathay with Teddy but seems like we are not fated to watch the movie as the timing was off on Monday and after our quick dinner, the tickets for the 7:40pm show was sold out...the next show starts at 9:50pm and I thought it would be too late by the time the movie ends. Headed to 313 Coffeebean to play Monopoly Deal instead...Will catch "Despicable Me" on Friday...
Bumped into Ray at Plaza Singapura again but didn't know will meet him so the Japanese snacks I got for Yifen and him is still at home...so coincidental. =)

Ramen Santouka

Tried the ramen at Central with Jason, Ray, Ben, Jenn Yang and Kelly after bumping into them at the Diver shop sale at Riverside Point. Not a ramen lover but the ramen here with the flavoured egg is nice...=P

Teddy Chua is back...

Had dinner with Teddy Chua at Suntec last night...will be celebrating his birthday with his family on Friday...=)

Teddy is away...

Sent Teddy off at Golden Mile after spending the afternoon with him and having dinner with his Uni friends. He will be off to Redang for a diving trip with his JC pals...hope he'll enjoy good weather there and stay safe...

Back from a wonderful Japan holiday

Shinjuku Washington Hotel

Touched down at Changi Airport Terminal 1 at 1+am last night...went home straight to catch some sleep as I have to be in school for the P6 intensive programme by 8am.

Had a great time with Teddy Chua, Nina and Amy. Visited Disneyland, Sanrio Puroland and lots of other places of attractions in Tokyo that I didn't go to the last time I went with my family. Bought alot of foodstuff at the Narita Airport to bring home for my family and friends...luckily, I didn't have excess baggage load...quite scared of paying the extra charges...if only the holiday doesn't end, can spend more time with Teddy and enjoy the fabulous seafood in Japan...tried horse meat sushi which was quite unique and the sea urchin/uni was simply delicious! =P

天福宫

今天和父母去吃虾面和排骨面。吃饱午餐后，我们去了天福宫拜拜。快要离开庙时，我发现有蝙蝠。原来在庙的屋檐下一共有八只蝙蝠在那里休息。很特别的景象。庙里其实蛮亮的，但是这些蝙蝠选择在这里休息。过后，我们去找爸爸卖手表的朋友，林叔叔，请他帮忙找换钱的朋友，让我换日币。换好日币，我就请爸妈去吃甜品。我很喜欢吃他们的姜汤芝麻汤圆。再过一天，我就会在日本游玩咯，好期待，好兴奋！（＞＿＜）

Tokyo here we come!

In 4 days time, we are heading to Tokyo for a 9-day holiday! Going for free and easy with Nina and her sis. Can't wait for our Jap adventure to begin! =D

"Shrek Forever After"

Caught this movie last night at Cathay. Think the movie was very nice and really like Puss in Boots innocent eye look...=) Shrek's line to Fiona that the best time he had that day was she made him fall for her all over again was very touching too.

Suzy's Zoo

Suzy's Zoo series of characters have been around for quite some time, didn't really notice them till sis said that she likes it. I managed to get one of the bolster from the prize stage machines after less than 5 tries, was pretty lucky that day. Also got to exchange another duck on the pillow for this boof just last Saturday.

Iron Man 2

Went to Vivocity to catch this movie that Teddy wanted to watch yesterday. Didn't watch the first movie but thought that this kind of movie would be pretty much the same.

After watching it, I thought that X-Men was much better in terms of the storyline. Though both movies had alot of fighting but still...the special effects in X-Men were more interesting to me.

Durains or Teddy?

Last weekend, Teddy Chua suddenly asked me: "If you have to choose, will you choose durain or me?" I answered: "You of course." Teddy beams...afterwhich I truthfully added: "Because you can buy me durains, sushi, sashimi, teh tarik, yami yoghurt, etc..." Teddy @_@...

Even if I have to sacrifice durains for Teddy Chua, I will gladly do it...no one can replace him. =)

《My Rainy Days》

Caught this movie cos Teddy thought it's a romantic film I'll enjoy. I thought that the female lead looks quite pretty but Teddy says she's just cute. I like the scene where the male lead tries to shut her up in the library by pasting a post-it on her lips...looks so silly.

Recent movies that we've caught

Watched "Future X Cops" as there's Andy Lau in it, the storyline is quite similar to a few other movies, so not that interesting.

Caught "Monga" and really think 阮经天 acted quite well. A pity that his character betrayed his friends and died in the end.

Gold bar USB and "Clash of the Titans"

Went to Victoria Concert Hall today for my school's choir rehearsal. Decided to pop by ABRSM office to ask about my piano practical exam date. Had a tough time with the office manager as she took on an authoritative tone and commented that it's very strange for me to come asking 1 day after the exams have ended. Apparently, the mail got lost and my scheduled date was 22 Feb. They gave me another form to register after much grumbling some more at me. Feel so awful...

Headed back to school and had my P observation for my P1 class. The students were quite cooperative so I was quite relieved. Have to arrange to meet up for the post-observation conference soon.

Decided to go play the machine to get the soft toys but had no luck. Later, after dinner with Jason, saw a few people managed to get USB from a machine quite easily. Decided to try my luck and after spending $8, managed to get 2 USBs of 1 GB each. The USB is in the shape of a gold bar...quite funny. Will take a photo and post up next time. Gave one of the USB to ying.

We went to watch "Clash of the Titans" with Roy, Azlina and Rosie. Think the movie is quite nice, better than "Alice in Wonderland".

Szz...szz...szz

He gets very amused when I make different sounds when I touch certain parts of his body sometimes. Just think that he is like a big soft-toy for me to play with sometimes. Haha...
Got the chance to use the electric shaver on him. Think it's fun especially when his chin is smooth after the shave and he can't poke me with his stubble which gives me the creeps everytime he does that.

"Up in the air"

We went to Vivocity and caught this movie. Think George Clooney's character is very lonely...but what he did for his sis, to give away his air miles for the couple to travel around the world was really sweet...I like the song from the movie "Help yourself" by Sad Brad Smith. The official website: http://www.theupintheairmovie.com/

Break Out

Went to watch "Break Out" with Jason at Esplanade today. The show was entertaining and I like the music. We went to Max Brenner after the show and I was on a Choc high as I drank the mocha and also shared the munchies waffle with him. He sent me home and we played Monopoly Deal with sis till it's time to go for my cousin's wedding at Furama.

Sushi Tei and Gustimo

Went for my facial at Hitachi Towers, Green Sanctuary. Wanted to go before CNY but they were fully booked. Finally, we managed to have dinner at Sushi Tei, Paragon. The last few times we tried to go to Sushi Tei there was always a long queue. They don't take reservations too so we can only go try our luck. Think maybe because it was a Monday so there wasn't any queue.
After dinner, we walked over to ION to look for Gustimo to try out the Gelato. We had melon, green apple and white wine flavours. I like the white wine taste. We played a few games of Monopoly Deal after having the gelato. Shared a cab home cos stomach was feeling funny. To wait for a cab at ION is simply a waste of time. We walked over to Wisma and the queue moved much faster.

"Alice in Wonderland"

Met up with Jason to have lunch at Queen and Mangosteen at Vivocity. After a very full lunch, we walked around Vivo to find baby clothes for my colleague's baby girl. Managed to get one from LifeBaby which has the message "Will work for milk" super cute. Went to get Haagen Daz Mango Sorbet. He keeps saying he pampers me too much...girlfriends are for pampering, no? haha...

We headed to China Square Central cos he wanted to get collectible toy as a birthday present for his brother. Thought there will be a better selection over there. Managed to find one rather big gundam model that was quite pricey.

Had my piano lesson before heading to Marina Square to meet his Uni friends for dinner and also movie. The movie was in 3D. Thought that the tiny mouse in the movie was cute but didn't really like the movie plot. Quite plain.

夹娃娃机

最近和他出门都会看到夹娃娃机。就像回到在台湾旅游的时候，会有一股冲动想玩一玩。第一次在狮城大厦夹到 Cinnamoroll with panda. 第二次，在新达城，夹到 Rilakuma 的娃娃。第二次较幸运，没花到10元就夹到了。

元宵节

今天是元宵节，但因为是星期天，家人一向到外用餐，而他的父母邀请我和他们一起吃晚餐，所以就到他的家吃火锅。晚餐吃得好饱。

"Dear John"

Went to Cineleisure after work to exchange my 2 free movie passes for "Dear John" at 9:40pm show. Went shopping and walking around Mandarin Gallery, Takashimaya, Wisma and ION. Managed to find the knickers that I got from Topshop before, like the design so got another of the same piece. Went into Marc by Marc Jacob at Mandarin Gallery. Saw this cute skirt with ribbon designs on it, was checking the price when I saw the tag, it was $399...faints...quickly placed it back on the rack and left the place.
Met Jason by 7pm and walked over to Lucky Plaza where we had Indonesian food for dinner. The food was good and we headed to Coffee Bean in Paragon so that he can view the photos in my netbook.
The movie ending was expected and it wasn't really a tear-jerker...so no puffy red eyes after the movie. He sent me home and both of us had a nice evening.

Earth Hour 8:30pm 27 March 2010 Saturday

For those who read my blog, do show support for this cause!

Lunch with his parents

Jason came to pick me up around 12+pm to go for lunch with his parents at Singapore Swimming Club. After lunch, we headed for his house to spend the afternoon together. Played Monopoly Deal again...=D Intended to go to Timbre after collecting his Esprit watch from Plaza Singapura but it started raining so we headed for Serangoon Gardens' Sushi Tei instead. There was a long queue and we decided to have chicken rice. After a very full dinner, we went to Liquid Kitchen to have a drink and continue with Monopoly Deal. Went home slightly earlier as both of us got to work tomorrow.

Dad's birthday

Had to go back to school for Choir practice from 8 to 10am. Stayed back to set P2 portfolio paper. Parents came by around 11am to pick me up to have lunch at Vista Bistro at Big Splash for Dad's birthday celebration. Gave him an angbao like what I did for Mum so that he can use it to buy whatever he needs or likes. After lunch, took a short walk along the beach before meeting Jason. We went to Paragon, Takashimaya and Wisma before heading to Plaza Singapura for my piano lesson. Spent much of our afternoon in coffee club playing Monopoly Deal. One of the waiters even asked where we got this game...not paying attention to serving customers but looking at the game...haha...
Made a puzzle for him with my own drawing so he got to fix it up himself. Had a smiling bear asking for Bear Hugs on the puzzle. =D
Jason's mum called for us to join them at home for dinner as it's 人日。Dinner was nice and will be joining them for lunch tomorrow too.

1 week anniversary

Met Jason at Vivocity after work to get dinner at Marche together. Tried the pork knuckles and got my chococinno fix...=D

Walked around to digest our full stomachs before heading to Haagen Daz for ice-cream. He forgot to bring the voucher we got the last time. Thought he had it in his wallet. Tried the Monopoly card game, Deal which was quite addictive and much faster to finish then the boardgame.

He got me the Cecelia Ahern book " The book of tomorrow" as a gift. Will prepare something for him on Saturday. =)

Yusheng...

Back to work today and feel quite tired cos slept late last night. During Contact Time today, we had our yusheng. Every year we will have this powerpoint to guide us to say the auspicious sayings and add the ingredients to the yusheng before tossing away. The salmon used this year was smoked so it tasted quite different. Felt very tired by the time my lessons ended, quickly rushed home to get a short nap before dinner.

Meet His Parents

After going to the temple with my parents in the morning, reached home by 12+pm. Jason came by to pick me up to go to his place as his parents wanted to meet me. Had a good chat with his mum...think she's very approachable. We went to Great World City and had dinner at Bangkok Jam. For once, the tom yum soup wasn't spicy and was only sour. Quite surprised as the restaurant serves rather authentic Thai cuisines. We went to GV to watch "Valentine's Day'. The movie was quite nice but it ended quite late, around 12am. Yawnz...

Steamboat dinner

Relatives came to visit for the second day of CNY, had a good time playing with Max...he is only 15 months old and he actually smiled when I wanted to carry him. Super adorable! Jason came by to pick me up to join him for his friend's gathering at Serangoon. We had steamboat dinner and after the dinner we were trying to find out how to get to Bottle Tree Park. Couldn't find the entrance so in the end just went back to my place.

Meet the parents

The first day of the Lunar New Year falls on the same day as Valentine's Day this year. In the morning, we went out for the visitations as usual. As this year we went out earlier, we finished the visitations and was back at home by 11+am.

Jason decided to pay my parents a visit as we were going out for the afternoon. He spent some time talking to my Dad before we left. He bought a bouquet of tulips for me which I left at home. We headed to Bukit Timah area to have dinner at Mimolette. I like the building as it has a colonial feel to it. The food was nice and the ambience was great. We headed to Mount Faber next but because he didn't make any reservations, the Jewel Box was full. We went to Emily Hill and had drinks at Hang Out. The place is rather secluded and there were only outdoor sittings. Enjoyed spending the day together.

Lunar New Year's Eve

Went out with Jason to Sentosa Resort World. It was a great disappointment as most of the retail stores were not open yet and those that were opened were the high end boutique kind. We headed to Vivocity for lunch at The Queen and Mangosteen. The serving was big but the food was nice. We walked around before heading to Haagen Daz for ice-cream. After which, we went back to Bugis to exchange the clothes rack which Jason got from Muji and also to Bugis street so that I can get the same blouse I got for sis as she wanted the black color version. We went to MacRitchie to enjoy the breeze before he sent me home for reunion dinner. This year not much stamina to eat for a long period of time, should be because of the heavy lunch I had.

First official date

While chatting on the phone last night, Jason asked if I would like to be his gf. Thought about it for awhile and decided to give both of us a chance. We went out as a couple to Bugis and had dinner at Ma Maison. While waiting for him, met Joycern who was meeting Biyin to go to Wendy's nail place. Jason and I went to Bugis street for me to find something similar to what I saw in Far East the other day. However, I didn't find a similar dress. Found a chiffon white long blouse and got that for $15 instead. We went to Hotel Intercontinental lounge to get drinks. He sent me home around 11+pm.

Wed evening out

Met up with Jason to have dinner at Wheelock Place's Sun with Moon before heading to Cineleisure for "14 Blades". The movie was rather gory but find the Singaporean actor, Qi Yi Wu acted quite well in it. We also tried chocolate Research Factory's Champagne choc which was very nice!

Before meeting him, was shopping around in Far East Square as I couldn't make an appointment with Green Sanctuary for a facial. Spotted 2 dresses which was very nice but their sizes were too small for the bust area...sigh...still thinking about them. Hope to find similar dresses in my size when I head to Bugis after work tomorrow.

CNY is coming yet...

Think my immunity system is still not strong enough...CNY is just round the corner but I caught the flu bug on Monday and wasn't able to go to the doc...bear with the sniffles after taking a panadol cold tablet frm a colleague and went for all my lessons.

Went home after work and took another tablet before taking a short nap in the evening. The next day ended with a sore throat but still dragged myself to work as there's an important meeting abt the P2 portfolio assessment.

为了看小小彬的演出，每次台湾播出后，第二天一定上网找 youtube　来看。这部剧很快就要完了。小小彬在另一部和言承旭和Ella的剧即将在U频道播出，到时才追看。下一站幸福的官方网站：http://www.ttv.com.tw/drama09/next/story.htm

《东京铁塔》

在台湾时，购买了《东京铁塔》的DVD。观看后，觉得电影的节奏有点慢，但主题是在说男主角和母亲的故事，反映了孝道。他们拍摄的东京铁塔，夜晚的灯光照得很漂亮迷人。
